"He’s (218cm) and anybody that size, regardless of the skill level, is just going to be such a big addition to the team.

"The bonus is with Luke he is a very, very skilled ‘big’. He’s got great touch around the basket, he can change shots and he can move his feet well.

"He’s adapting to our style of play very well, which is up-and-down, so he’s just going to be a great addition and I think he’ll be a dominant player in this league."
